Wearing

Famous quotes containing the word wearing:

“To be faced with what so-and-so’s mother lets him do, or what the teacher said in class today or what all the kids are wearing is to be required to reexamine some part of our belief structure. Each time we rethink our values we reaffirm them or begin to change them. Seen in this way, parenthood affords us an exceptional opportunity for growth.”
—Ruth Davidson Bell (20th century)

“Why do you ever mend your clothes, unless that, wearing them, you may mend your ways. Let us sing.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“it’s just that I see love as odd as wearing shoes—
I never wanted to marry a girl who was like my mother
And Ingrid Bergman was always impossible”
—Gregory Corso (b. 1930)
